Don’t blame him. Had a lot of past concussion issues.

Luke Kuechly retires (1 Viewer)

I was going to come in here to say how long will Kuechly be ranked higher than Shaq Thompson.....hahaha
Speaking of which, how big of boost does this give Shaq moving forward? Will they keep him outside and bring in a new middle guy? Does he step up and take over for Kuechly? With a new coaching staff coming in how big of a change does this end up being? Does Thompson actually decline because of a new scheme? Maybe some good value here is you can predict the future.
I have had high hopes for Shaq for a long time, but the reality seemed to be that he was terribly inconsistent. even in games when Luke was out.
This year he really seems to have stepped up production, but with the new coaching staff, possible scheme changes, and his spotty history I am having a hard time giving him a significant bump in projections.
Can’t speak definitively, can’t even remember where I heard it (maybe Kuechly himself?) but it sounded like Shaq would be taking over in the middle. If so, would open up Shaq’s spot on the outside.
As soon as I heard the retirement news I grabbed Jermaine Carter in 2 leagues. He filled in for Shaq one of the last weeks of the season and put up nice numbers, like 8 tackles plus if I recall.
May not end up that way but always good to be proactive if you have the roster spots.
